My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Chequers. The hotel is clean, well kept and convenient for all local amenities. The staff were very professional and polite and happy to help at every turn. Highlight for me, apart from the location, was the plentiful parking available and the breakfast was delightful and incredibly good value for money. A thoroughly enjoyable stay and highly recommended.

We stayed for 1 night as a family of 4 as we were going to the races. Great location and the family room was perfect Great size with a singular bed in its own room. After reading the reviews we were a bit horrified but no need at all. The beds were really comfortable with lovely fresh clean bedding and towels. Toiletries provided, tea and coffee making supplies with biscuits too. Overall a great stay. We would stay again. Thank you.

Fair amount ot parking spaces but if you are going to Newmarket Racing then i would get there early, we arrived at around 12pm and managed to grab the last empty parking space thankfully. Staff were lovely, allowed us early check in and were very helpful with Taxis and restaurant recommendations (we ate in Burkha round the corner and the food was beautiful! I had one of the Executive rooms which was nice and spacious. Will definitely stay again next time i go to the races.
